Ross had a party at the movie theater that was attended by: Our family, Cousin Anna (age 15), Eric from his class who is wheelchair-bound and full of unbridled joy, Daniel (and his sister, Gracie), Vishnu, Tyler, and Noah (his best buddy from his former school). Noah also slept over- lots of fun! On his actual birthday, we had pizza at Pinetop pool with the Ridgill Family.
Lydia's love language is gifts but her resources are as limited as the size of her heart is unlimited. This year, she gave Ross such a sweet gift: She created several Pokemon cards for him. J.T. pointed out her maturity in having drawn a gift that interests Ross (but not her). Also, I had given her $2 last week for her and her brothers to buy cups of lemonade. I told her that if the stand was closed, she and Ross could just each keep one of the dollars. What was inside Ross's hand-made birthday card from Lydia? Both of the lemonade dollars! Post-note: Aunt Liz kindly helped Lydia create the card and decorate it with a dark ribbon (masculine, for Ross). :)
Above, you'll see a "Birthday Interview" that I had Ross fill out. As usual, Russell scribbled on his big brother's work.
